Dessy Densky's Hey Ministries

Hello, I’m Dessy.

I am in the middle of writing a book about the life stories of 175 women from the Bible. Each story of these women’s lives is full of anxieties, pressing situations, risks, criticisms, tears, loneliness, guilt, responsibilities that were not asked for, and even more…

But what leaves me speechless is to see that despite everything I have already mentioned, the factor of the mercy and the strength of God, was what always were present in their lives. I am sure that was how they were able to persevere in their particular circumstances.

And God who wasted nothing, always worked the contexts of their conditions, in a way that, although it seemed like a real failure, His true purpose was always fulfilled in them.

But…WHAT IF… many of these women’s lives had taken a different turn? WHAT IF… their stories had not ended the way they did? WHAT IF… that would have happened? Can you imagine?

Post # 1 WHAT IF…

Eve, Daughters of Eve, Noah’s Wife & Daughters-in-law

1. What If… Eve would never hear a snake talking?

2. What If… Eve would never have daughters?

3. What If… Noah wouldn’t have had the godly wife?

EVE

WHAT IF…  Eve would never have walked alone in the Garden of Eden? or struck up a conversation with a snake? Let’s assume that it never happened…

Eve was created by a perfect God, at a perfect time, in a perfect place, in a perfect way, to have a perfect life, for a perfect purpose. She and her husband had all the beauty of the Garden for themselves and the animals. It was completely understandable that God wanted to create more humans to fill that garden, and that they could live happily there.

Although the Bible doesn’t say that Adam and Eve were intimate in the Garden, that was something that was going to happen anyway, because God created their bodies to love each other, and to procreate other human beings.

 God had an exclusive plan for Eve’s life. She was made to transmit her inner and physical beauty to her babies, as she was also the image of her Creator. God had put in her that maternal instinct, which was going to help her reason correctly about what she had to do to raise her children.

In the garden, the spiritual dimension was well intertwined with the physical dimension, which means that if God Himself came to walk with them in the garden, then it would have been very normal for God to send the angels to help Eve to take care of the many children that she was gradually giving birth to.

There was no death, but maybe life’s stages, where things like stopping getting pregnant after giving birth to two or three thousand babies in hundreds of years, it had to be fair. The world’s population would have grown, but not to the point where it is today.

IF SO… Eve, who would still be living today, not looking old of course, would have already found other great modern systems of cooking, making clothes, making some art, new ways to educate her children, and much more; and without a doubt, Adam would have discovered better technology to work the land, build a comfortable house, and have help from the animals to advance the projects he works with many of his sons.

And all of that, I’m sure, would have been very good for God, because it was, He, Himself who put creativity into their minds. God would still be visiting all the humans living around every evening and walking with them. Even the conversation would become more advanced with the centuries, Humans would be enjoying talking with God about like science, math, plants, weather, life from other worlds, and of course, all about His beloved son.

IF THAT…  would happen like that, we particularly would never have known the story of Eve, because would be not one, and most likely, we would never have gotten here, because I don’t believe God’s plan was about over-populating the earth. Eden would have remained to this day the perfect world that God created for them, and that would undoubtedly have spread throughout the earth.

If that had been the case, even though Adam and Eve knew God face to face, we would never have known the true heart of God. Because it is in the distress, the suffering, and the difficult times when the real heart of somebody shows.

BUT GOD… even with His broken heart for what had happened, He did not reject what He had already created; He never stops loving those whom He made to His very image. Rather, after Eve’s blunder, He still considered her as an important part of a new plan that He, Himself outlined to never give up, but restore His relationship with His precious human race.

TODAY… I’m so grateful that you and I are part of that amazing plan that God thought when He still had on His hands the animal skins with which He covered His first two children.

EVE’S DAUGHTERS 

WHAT IF…  Eve never had baby girls, but a lot of baby boys only. To start with, no one else would have reproduced other humans but her. Moreover, she would have been the only female species, and her boys would never have had wives.

The situation between Cain and Abel never have happened, because remember… we are imagining that Eve never had that conversation with the serpent; so, her children never were contaminated with sin, which although it really originated in heaven, but, do not affect the new world that God had made.

Surely the world’s populated been growing slower, as God had designed it in His mind. For generations, men would not be somewhat motivated to learn new things that would help them support their families, because none of them have one. And of course, that wouldn’t have led the world to a gay community because sin hadn’t been propagated.

IF SO… this world would have been from the beginning a totally different way of life than the one that is currently structured in our minds and our culture today. Men would live as independent individuals who would do their own thing, without expecting a wife to do almost everything for them (Of course, there are some exceptions…).

BUT GOD… put the perfect chromosomes in Adam’s body, so that Eve would have as many baby boys and baby girls, as much that was possible for her. That was the way God wanted to fill the earth. Those daughters and those sons grew and even though they were siblings, they became families that God was watching.

So, the daughters of Eve, as their mother, had to accomplish the female function to multiply and fill the earth, that was how God had established from the beginning, but it had to be inside of a family structure.

TODAY… when we ever celebrate a wedding, the birth of a baby, a birthday, family holidays together, or have a home and a family where we can come to eat and rest, after a long day of work, is because we too are part of that family and social structure that God himself established in Eden, and also after Eden. His gift of what a family is, is still in effect today.

 

NOAH’S WIFE

WHAT IF… Noah would have come to tell his wife what God had told him about building an ark to save them from the flood, and she would not have believed him. Every morning at breakfast, and, at dinner in the evening, Noah wanted to talk about what God said to him, of how they have, as a family needed to engage in what God had asked him to do, but Nanmah (which was her name) do not let him to talk about that, especially in front of her sons.

She reasonably thought what this madness would mean for her and her children, no doubt people would make fun of them, so she was totally opposed to supporting the project that according to her husband, God Himself had told him.

It’s not that she didn’t believe in God, in her own way she knew that God had helped them many times, but the social influence was stronger. Besides, what was a flood? No one had ever seen one.

IF SO… it didn’t take long for Noah to give God all kinds of excuses that he wasn’t going to be able to build that ark, because maybe his wife was right. His boys were still young, and they had some, not too bad friends in the city; and with such of idea, they would probably lose their friends, because some people don’t always want to hang out with weird people like that.

Besides (he was going with his excuses), the boys are still too young to understand the job and the purpose, so they wouldn’t be able to help him as much as he would need to. He wouldn’t have a way either to get helpers to work with him, since people would believe that he is crazy.

Another thing… is not a place to build something so big, because Nanmah had planted all kinds of vegetables in the big fields around the house. Noah didn’t feel capable of conducting such of project for God, but the main reason was that he didn’t feel the support of his wife and therefore his boys either.

IF THAT… would happen like that, probably after five years trying to convince his wife, to see if he can build the ark or not, Noah would have given up. Even though he loved God, and that he believed that God should do something about the immorality of his days, perhaps he would think that God could find another way to solve the problem and still save his family.

And if in the end there was no ark, nor was there a flood, then that family’s concept of faithfulness to God became more of a way of limiting God by not accepting and obeying His command. Since there was no flood, so, the boys grew up, got married, have their own families, they continued working all their lives with animals and in the fields. So, in the end, that family’s faithfulness to God was diluted by the world around them, which, by the way, it was very much displeased to God.

BUT GOD… who never is wrong, saw ahead of all what could happen If he chose the wrong man, he would have had a cold-hearted wife toward her husband, and toward her children, and without any spiritual understanding. The mission that God wanted to place on Noah’s shoulders also rested on the feminine shoulders of a woman whose heart God already knew.

In the midst of, a society morally abhorrent to God’s character of holiness, there was only one man with his family, who by the unconditional support and prayers of his wife, would deserve not to be destroyed by a flood, as was going to happen to all the other inhabitants of the earth.

The fruit of many years of faithfulness to God, living a right family life, was not only a witness to their sons but also to the daughters-in-law, who decided to follow their husbands’ family, knowing that they would lose their own families in the flood.

God sometimes allows things to happen, and He lets human hearts act for themselves, but that doesn’t mean that God got confused or He makes mistakes because that will never be the case.

TODAY… that I know the real story of the flood, make me think how wretched it must have been when the rain began to increase and the rivers overflowed, and the water began to sweep away whatever it found in its path.

If Noah and Nanmah would not obey God, you and I would not be here today, because there would have been no human beings left to continue reproducing. God keeps them apart, but He didn’t remove the fact that they had to do their part, they had to build the ark together for many years, and God was waiting for them.

It is also the same for us; when we feel that we are almost reaching an emotional flood, which entails sensitive and difficult family or personal situations, we can be sure that God will set us apart to take care of us, but He still would expect us to take the time to build the ark.
